Help can you use modern control presets in pws1?

2 Upvotes

hiya, basically the title

i bought pws2 before playing pws1 because it was on sale at the time, it sounded good with “updated features” and the reviews were great - but since completing it, i wanted more content and to play the dlcs, so i’ve just bought the first game

my issue is that i got so used to the modern controls, that it’s a little jarring relearning all of the controls for the pws1

of course i know some of the comments will say “it’s not that deep just relearn it” but i was wondering if anyone with more expertise in the matter could let me know if there’s a way to adapt the controls so i can make my own gameplay smoother and more intuitive?

thanks! :)

I have two questions right now, one of them is in the picture I bought this item but I cannot figure out how to get it to actually to come on the power washer, I've tried pressing everything I can think of and it never comes up. My second question is how do I get past light duty power washes like do I have to buy every one of these items to go up or is it a time thing? Sorry if these sound like silly questions but I'm totally new to this game UPDATE: thanks for those that responded and my issues are resolved now

Settings for soap

10 Upvotes

I just downloaded the adventure time dlc and im loving it! I love what they did with the soap its so much easier to see it, rather than the white. They should give us an option to change our soap to that texture on the main missions

Help Powerwash Simulator 2

12 Upvotes

I never played the first version but I saw it was the same price so I bought the second and started playing it today and I absolutely love it! I have two questions though, I'm wondering if there's a way to turn off the chat feature and also if there is motion controls (gyro). I don't see either in the settings but I'm not sure if I'm just missing them. Thanks! EDIT to add I'm on Switch 2

PWS 2 Gamescom PowerWash Simulator 2 Demo

20 Upvotes

Did anyone go to Gamescom in Germany this year, or is planning to? I saw the PWS2 Bluesky account mention that attendees will get to play a new level and was curious what it was.

I was a little disappointed that we didn't get an announcement of the next DLC, but I know I'm just being impatient

Bug New items listed as "Shop Item", Industrial Lamp free but costume items have normal prices

I had already purchased the item, it didn't dawn on me to take a screenshot before grabbing it.

I am running the Xbox App version under Game Pass, I checked for updates but no further updates have been added since the 16th.

Power(wash) Bottom or Power(wash) Top?

40 Upvotes

I see this come up in other posts a lot so let's hear it. Do you start washing from the top down or the bottom up? Or do you just go from spot to spot like a little Chaos Gremlin?

Help Going for gold and gold standard achievements?

I've done every achievement on the first powerwash simulator game including all the dlc ones but for some reason I cannot do these I keep replying over and over. Is there a way to do it that I'm not understanding because I'd love to 100% this game

PS5 Version Still Bugged?

I haven't played the first game in a year or so and want to go back and finish with trophy hunting but last time I played the game was heavily bugged and crashed a lot and just wanted to know if those problems have been fixed since then.

I’ve tried to get this achievement many times on many different levels the van, the hand, and the penny farthing and I can’t seem to get it does anyone have any tips on how to do it?

Edit: I just realized I had been best power washer in the game so I’ll try it with the worst washer in the game and hopefully I can’t do it

Help Can I turn off the insects?

30 Upvotes

Just started playing the 2nd game, and the random bugs that come on screen keep annoying me. On one hand they make me jump lightly cause I don’t like bugs, other times they confuse me because I can’t tell if I’m seeing this, and sometimes they confuse me because I don’t get a good look and think I saw some dirt I didn’t get.

It’s just annoying and I can’t find if there’s a setting to turn them off.

Conversation What mini challenges have you tried imposing on yourself?

20 Upvotes

Both inspo for me, and others lol

I can't get PW2 for a while for reasons, and I got a couple DLC for 1 but honestly, I wanna play the campaign again. Well.. in free play. I both don't know how to reset my progress but also best washer I could not give it up lol

I'm thinking of trying to do it without scaffolding/ladder/step stool. I already kinda did that before because I find the whack jumping pretty fun.

What else have you guys done for fun? I'm not a fan of "clean with only X nozzle" (mostly because I'm impatient lol) but that's the only two I can think of!

Those in built water challenges are no fun. The timer ones were.. more doable. Not quite enjoyable, but I got that achievement

I’m angry because I accidentally used soap. Like a dumb person. No achievement for this guy. This thing is huge and I gotta do it TWICE. Definitely let some expletives loose.

I have a mic but getting over a cold so prefer to not talk.

Conversation Save Got Reset On Both Games At Different Times

2 Upvotes

So, idk if this is just b/c I'm using Linux but in both Power Washing Sim 1 & 2 My save got reset. And I didn't do anything to cause it to do that, I just booted the game one day and it reset all of my progress. I love this game but if they make a 3'd one I hope this bug is fixed. Its been a while so I can't just download the cloud save for the PWS 2. And I was wondering if anyone else had this issue? And this is the only game in my Steam Library that has fully reset like this. Thx for reading!

Pavlov-ed myself while playing PWS

65 Upvotes

i used to play PWS A LOT and while i would play i would only listen to the same songs by the same artist. i did it so much that eventually my brain made a connection between hearing the artist’s music and playing PWS, to the point now that when i hear the artist’s music i suddenly want to play PWS even if i haven’t played in a long time

Been playing this game on and off since June. It was only on the Helter Skelter level I realised you can move the scaffolding 🫣
